This part! ⬇️ If all you could sum up from my leaving is the present state of the co-op, and not instead question why another woman of color is leaving the chamber-you missed it. This decision is what’s best for me and I’m proud of my efforts in the GA.

With heartfelt gratitude, I announce I will not seek re-election. Serving you has been my greatest honor. As I embrace new life chapters, I remain dedicated to fighting for our community throughout my term. Thank you for your trust and support. 🩵💙

In case y’all missed it, Rep. @BHenriesRI rocked it on the floor last night during our floor debate regarding the Equality in Abortion Coverage Act 👏🏽✊🏽
In response to Anti-Trans amendments and fear-mongering rhetoric, she fought back! – at Providence, RI
Is it even Primary Day if you didn’t commemorate it with a pic?! Encouraging all RI’ers to get out and vote, primaries matter! I’d be honored to have your vote to serve D64 again! 💙

“When @NWBRV approached me to support this project my answer was a resounding YES as I’m a huge supporter of #affordablehousing” @bhenriesri thanks for supporting affordable homeownership in the @CityofEastProv
This is why people think politics are dirty. Low integrity smear campaigns never look good especially when they mirror establishment used templates and talking points, while using republican rhetoric.

After declining a debate to talk to the issues, my opponent is now choosing to spread misinformation. To my constituents in East Providence, and soon-to-be Pawtucket , I hope you all see through this attempt to tear me down.

Together we can! Was happy to present this $20,000 check with @GreggAmore1 and @repkazarian of the EP delegation to ensure our Tiny Townies have a place to play! Very excited to see the new playground and to continue to build the community up! ☺️🛝
I scream, you scream, we all scream for bold policy change made by everyday working class people in the RI Statehouse! Loved chatting with our overlapping communities yesterday with these two amazing RI Senate candidates, @GregoryGrecoRI (D18) and @MDuckworthRI (D14)! 🍦
Fun fact: @GregoryGrecoRI dad was my pediatrician for almost 19 years! Community often comes full circle! ☺️
Hello district 64! It’s officially nomination time and it would be my honor to have your support to get me back on the ballot! You just need to be a registered voter and live in District 64. See you at the doors! ✍️

My friend Jen was attacked by her opponent last night. This is so bleak.

I'm a reproductive rights organizer & State Senate candidate. Last night, after speaking at our Roe rally, my Republican opponent – a police officer – violently attacked me.
This is what it is to be a Black woman running for office. I won't give up.
Tomorrow! Join the RI Legislative Black & Latino Caucus to celebrate Juneteenth at the State House! We will be celebrating in the Bell Room at 3pm.
I look forward to seeing you there!
Reminder: my first ever campaign fundraiser is tonight at the Red Bridge Tavern in East Providence from 6-8pm. I look forward to seeing you there! secure.actblue.com/donate/ma…
